Road Repairs,

The County Commissioners have caus
Ell the following notices to be issued tC
the road commissioners which indicate
their determination in regard to repairs
to the roads:
ELKToN. Mp, March IS, lSS1.-Deay
Sir: You are hereby directed to notify
immediately all supervisors in your dis
trlcJ that they must proceed to repair
the roads III their charge, and that no
road will be passed that does not show
by It's good condition that 1t has been
mcnded according to law
Let each supervisor distinctly understand
that those who shirk their duty will re-
ceive no compensation whatever You
will give this notice i'll person and en-
deavUr to make it clear to the supervisors
that the taxes levied for them must be
earned by honest labor on the roads or
1t shall remain in the treasury. Those
who have not had sufficient time may be
allowed an extension, and we will make
second inspection for their benefit be-
fore certificates are issued to them.
Yours respectfully,
IRWIN G.. GRIFFITH,
VIM r. COOLEY,
VIM. ii. DEsHANE.
The inspection of the roads has re-
vealed the fact that bnt few of the roads
are in good condition. The extension of
time has been granted for the repair of
the roads. The county commissioners
think that as the supervisors have done
SO little to the roads during the last six
months they might now 60 to work in
earnest for a few weeks. $4,000 will
soon have been paid by the commission
ers to road supervisors for their work
during the last half year

Roads ON East Maui.

ED. P. G. ADvERTsER-Sir You Ho-
nolulu folks will share US a mutual COM
partnership as side by side we trudge on
the equally bad roads which the Road
Authorities would give us for the road
tax they would heartlessly extort from
US. will tell you true incident, show
ing that had Job, with all his patience,
been placed on our roads with the in
junction to travel over them, he would
have lost that virtue for which he is so
justly celebrated.
Two weeks ago, on report that Gov
ernor Robert H. Baker was to come on
an overland tour through East Maui, the
Judge of Honuaula started Hanawards
from Ulupalakua, with few men hired
at his own expense, to repair the roads
as far as he could, so that it would not
put the Governor to the inconvenience
of dismounting now and then and driv
ing his horse ahead by dint of ''holler-
ing" and blows, such as we kuaaina boys
are forced to do, over the unreliable
places. The loyal Judge proceeded on
his worthy mission far into Kahikinui,
until he came upon washout where a
horse would have to make a flying
leap of twenty feet or more down
gulch on the main road,
or make detour of half-mile or so to
a place where the leap is not so dis
couraging. There the plucky Judge
turned back and expressed the opinion
that if the Governor hears of it he
won't come this way for he would have
to dismount and pitch stones at his
horse to make it jump that much. AS
there was no chance of stirring up the
Road Supervisor to go over and have
the breach mended, we country people
will lose the prospect of receiving a call
from the only Honorable Governor who
cares to visit us in our out-of-the-way
homes.
Since the Hon. George E. Richardson
was promoted to the Circuit udgeship a
man from Waihee, Maule by name, has
been appointed Road Supervisor. 1t is
hoped some one in these parts might get
a good glimpse of him before the year is
out and report on his looks.

In Memorlam-Mrs. Mary Hi.

In December last this most estimable
lady came from Washington Territory to
the Hawaiian Islands, in the hope that
the soft air of this equable climate might
restore her health. The fatal malady-
however, too strong
a hold upon her constitution to be thus
easily thrown off. She steadily failed
from the time of her arrival, and upon
Wednesday evening breathed her last.
All who have been privileged to know
her bear witness to the gentle patience
and sweet resignation with which she
met the WEAKNESS and pain OF her i'll
ness, to her earnest faith and humble
Christian character. Mrs. Hill was a
devout and intelligent member OF the
Episcopal Church, and found comfort
and peace in it's ministrations. Since
coming to Honolulu her home has been
at Waikiki with Mr.. and Mrs. Gideon
West, who have been untiring and I'M
sparing in their ministry of love to her
necessities.
Funeral services were held yesterday
afternoon at St. Andrews Cathedral by
the Rev. George Wallace and by the
Rev. Alexander Macintosh. The
beautiful service was most impressively
read. The hymn, "Jesu, Lover of my
SOUP was sung. On the coffin were
several floral wreaths.
The interment was in the Nuuanu Gem
etery, where already sleep the mortal
remains of many who, far from home in
the body, yet still are bound to those
who love them in that union which can
not be broken by distance or by time.
